It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang, the leader of the peasants at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, was defeated in a battle with the soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty and fled to the foot of Aoyu peak. There was a high mountain in front of him and a pursuer behind him, so he had to turn to God for help. At this time, the stone lotus on the top of Lianhua peak opened, and a white haired fairy swept to the waist of Aoyu peak with his hand. With a golden light and a roar, the wall of the peak cracked and the cave appeared. When Zhu Yuanzhang was in difficulty, he worshipped the immortal and went through the cave. Because it is a natural stone cave, people engrave the word "Tianzao" on the cave entrance.
